Solidworks 2016 crashing when changing printing option to "Scale to Fit"

Hello all,

I am having an issue with SW2016 when I try to print a drawing with correct scaling, such that it doesn't look zoomed in and cut out half the drawing. This issue also happens when I print to PDF. I tried going into print settings, but when i click on "scale to fit" and click OK, Solidworks crashes. It is doing this to drawings that I previously printed with no problem. Please see the attached image for pictures of the problem.

Thanks!

Do you not get good results if you go directly to Print and choose "Current sheet" instead of going to Page Setup? Or have you tried going to Page Setup from here (upper right)?

  Glenn,
  
  Thank you for your response. I am not sure because I circumvented the problem by re-producing the drawing. I do however remember that it wouldn't allow me to open the 'Properties' or 'Preview' buttons in the Print window you're showing. Reproducing the drawing solved the problem, but I am unsure why the issue arose in the first place...
